VET FEE-HELP is a student loan scheme for the Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector that is part of the Higher Education Loan Program (HELP). VET FEE-HELP assists eligible students undertaking certain VET diploma level and above courses. It allows students to borrow funds up to their FEE-HELP limit to help pay for all or part of their VET tuition fees. It does not cover accommodation and general living expenses. Students who access VET FEE-HELP assistance will have a loan with the Australian Government who will, on the student’s behalf, pay their VET tuition fees to their approved VET provider.
